Garment sortation on a budget
June 1st 2006

An automated sortation system from SDI Greenstone has enabled Spanish childrenswear company Tutto Piccolo to achieve a healthy increase in throughput at its DC in Alcoy, near Alicante.

As the budget for the project was limited, SDI supplied a second hand sortation system, previously used at a garment DC in France.

The sorter was shipped in component from to Spain and re-engineered to meet Tutto Piccolo's precise requirements, including the installation of bespoke software.

It took SDI Greestone's engineers just ten day to install the sorter and within a month the system was fully operational.
